She Drew The Gun make impassioned, hypnotic and darkly ornate psych-pop built around the lyrically evocative songwriting of singer-guitarist Louisa Roach. At first glance Roach’s fuzzy psych-pop may suggest that the Wirral born songwriter is another ‘Cosmic Scouser’ but then you’re drawn into the spirit of rebellion, songs that rally against injustice and food banks and celebrate outsiderdom. Roach was late to music, releasing her first LP ‘Memories of the future’ after a decade of motherhood and studying at college. The second LP ‘ Revolution of Mind’, released October 2018, and produced by The Coral’s James Skelly, continues the fine work laid out on her 2016 debut. Already announced in the top 10 albums of 2018 by BBCRadio6 Music, the record is one of the runaway indie successes of the year. The band, previous main stage performers at Glastonbury and Cambridge folk festival among others, will tour the UK in February/March 2019.
